The Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS) is increasing from 6 February 2024 for Student route and Graduate route applications.
For Student route applications, and Student route dependant applications, made on or after 6 February 2024, the IHS fee will be £776 per applicant, per year of permission applied for. Student route applicants currently pay £470.
For Graduate route applications, and Graduate route dependant applications, made on or after 6 February 2024, the IHS fee will be £1035 per applicant, per year of permission applied for. Graduate route applicants currently pay £624.
This change is due to the Immigration (Health Charge) (Amendment) Order 2024, which was published on 16 January 2024, and which makes amendments to the original Immigration (Health Charge) Order 2015 (as amended). The Order sets out the amount that applicants are required to pay in order to access NHS treatment.
